It’s hard to imagine how a beverage with 15 percent alcohol by volume and the caffeine content of eight cans of Coke could lead to unsavory behavior, but Buckfast, a fortified wine brewed by Benedictine monks at Buckfast Abbey, is becoming a real problem over in Scotland. Having spent a year at St. Andrews University over there, we can attest that this stuff seriously erodes your common sense; that prosaic label should peel off and double as an apology card addressed to anyone you encountered after finishing a bottle. Thankfully, this stuff is not available in America, although it could make things really interesting on the set of "Jersey Shore" Season 2.
